| Just one approach-
Only allow them to play together when you can supervise them. Put Holly on a leash when she's allowed to play with Panda. You'll need to supervise carefully and make a correction or give a brief time-out as soon as she's being to rough so she understands what behavior will no longer be allowed. You might be able to predict the behavior and give her a reminder before it happens. You need to be consistent... every time she's doing something that's too rough, you need to be there to tell her to "play nice" or "gentle". If play gets too rough, the play stops and the dogs are separated. Also, if the problem occurs when they're turned loose to play in the backyard, you might instead opt for leash walks. |
| we still have Beowulf on a leash most of the time around the other dogs - he is the youngest but bggest anad really doesn't get it yet. I would also try to make sure Holly is TIRED before she has a chance to play with the Springer. so exercise her first - maybe with a more appropriate playmate - before she has a chance at the Springer. You could also try to teach ehr a command - like gentle? to use when she approaches him?
good to see you are still here  |
Thank you I will try the leash and the command "easy" . SHe just wants to play and I know she doesn't mean to hurt him she just wants to play. I am so glad I stuck it out with Holly even with all her problems I love her to death  |
